Glossary of Chinese gender and sex terminology

I’m not a misandrist but if a man plays video games then he should just expect to get messages asking him to show pics of his dick. Everyone knows video games are for women.

wolvensnothere:
Remember that time I wondered why Professional-Grade Digital Cameras With Wireless Capability weren’t a thing? Well, apparently?
Nikon wondered the same thing: http://cnet.com/reviews/nikon-coolpix-s800c-black/35419326
I’m being bugged. I just know it. And I wouldn’t mind if they would just give me one of the products they make from my ideas.
So. Anyway. It’s a first step,...

I find them on subways reading books I have on my list of Books To Read. I find them at bars dancing more enthusiastically than anyone else; even if they can’t really dance. I find them in line at the grocery store on a Friday night buying cookie dough, milk and that’s it. I find them in the Canadian poetry section of bookstores.
